TRIUMPHANT DEFEAT OF THE WHIG FACTION , AND GLORIOUS VICTORY OF THE CHARTISTS , AT DERBY . Toe town was publicly pl&earded in the week ending llarch 6 tk , annoawing that & { wblic meeting -would be held in the Tows Hall , on Thnreday aeon , at twelve o'clock , to take i * to considemtion the propriety of petitioning Parliament to remove the prohibitions and restrictions imposed by the existing commercial code , and revise tbe tariff of impert duties ,, with a Tiew of seducing the price of some of the most important necessaries of life , * od to increase the commerce and revenue of tke com ? try .
Immediately on the appearance o ! this announcement , tbe Chartists met and stsolved to oppose them , and issued cmt * placard , calling upon the working men of Derby to be at their post—to be no Jonger duped by the factions—to be peaceable and erderly—to be men now at aerei ? and that M * . Bairstow , the unflinching advocate of the working man ' s rights , would Address the jaeating . At twelve ' clod : on the day ot meeting , tbe doors of the Town Hall were opened , and a tremendous crush was made into the laiga hall of tka building a place that will hold 1 . 400 persons , and was three-fourths filled by a moet attentive and enthusiastic audience .
The Mator iMr . Jessop ) and other gentlemen connected with the Whig party , entered the Hall , and a miserable failure at cheering was attempted . After the lapse of a minute , it was inoved that the Mayor do take the chair , when that gentleman placed himself in that situation , though the motion had not been pat to tke meeting , and the general laughter of the assembly indicated that they deemed it irregular , thongh nnworthy further notice . He opened the meeting by reading the original placard , convening the
meeting . Immediately on taking the chair , Mr . FaRSSWorte , a Chartist , rose and moved that the meeting be adjourned to seven o'doci in the evening , in consequence ot the inability of the working classes to attend at thai untimely tour , "wtuch -was received With tremeadems cheering from the body of the Hall , "While the "Whigs looied unutterable things from the benches . . ^ ii . Jackson seconded the motion , and insisted on Its being put to the meeting . The Mayor expressed his astonishment at the irregularity of the proceeding , and called -upon
Mr . Johnson to more the first resolution , which was & mere echo of the sentiments embodUd in the placard , when , after proceeding to speak to it for a few seconds , be "was interrupted by cries of " put the adjournment , " " pat the adjourn meat . " He attempted to shuffla on the business of the meeting , by passing the motion as an amendment to tke motion for adjournment : but it "was " no go . " The meeting still persisted that the motion should be pot iir . Tckxxe ., the operative poet , made several very stringent and pointed remarks , -when , after considerable wrangling between the Wnigs and the Chartists , it "WiS nltim<ly put by the Mayor , and was carried "by such an overwhelming majority , that the Mayor did not pot it " to the contrary , " and the meeting was adjourned till seven o ' clock , amid tke loudest acclamations .
For half as hoar previous to the time of commencement in the evening , vast crowds were crowding every avenue leading to the Town Hall , The Hall was ¦ peedily filled to excess , —the mayor , the-gentry , aristocracy , and middle-class men of the town and vicinity , having , prior to the opening of the doors , snugly seated themselves on the bench , in tbe -witness box , ic ., &c But even those places were but ver _ . imperfectly filled by the respectables , though not affording accommoda tion to more Una one-sixth of the immense mass in the body of the Hall ; but the Mayor , having given liberty for admission promiscuously , those parts became as densely wedged together as human beings conld bear . The adjsurned meeting then commenced by the Matob . reading the placard , stating that snj person would be allowed to speak , and called npon Mr . Johxsox to move the first resolution ; the same he read in the meeting at noon , stating ,
" That the import duties -were oppressive t » the country , and that their repeal -would better the condition of the poor ; increase tbe eoniznerce and revenue of the country , and that the meeting would petition Parliament on the subject " He spoke to the motion for half an hour , being heard with perfect decorum , but great impatience was manifested on the part of the m » eting . Be said that a reduction in the impart duties , and the total repeal of the Corn Laws , would increase our commerce , raise wages , cheapen food , give plenty of employment to tbe industrious , &c- ; and he poured forth a lachrymose peroration on the decline of England ' s commercial greatness , and feared she would fall in the straggle , except the aristocracy would agree to a repeal of the bread tax , and all other prohibitory duties , and give . a perfectly free trade . Having finished his monotonous drJTgD ? ng ,
Mi . Aldennan Bahkes seconded tbe motion , and « at flown . When the Mator was procceeding to put the motion , Mr . Tckxeb rose amid great and general cheering , and moved the following amendment : — " That , while this meeting approves of any revision or reform in the Commercial Code , adapted to relieve the oppressive burdens nnder which the working Classes labonr , it will not petition a Parliament in which the people are n » t represented , for anything abort of the People ' Charter , to give the entire nation a full , free , and equal representation in the House of Commons by Universal Suffrage- " Having read it , he would sit down , leaving Mr . Bairstow to speak to it Mr . Twiss having seconded it ,
Mr . Baiestow rose upon the beaches , and was received by the meeting -with the most enthusiastic Ciieering , He proceeded to expa . Ka . te upon the necessity of procuring the People ' s Charter , and upon tfce arguments that had baen urged by the mover and econder of the resolution respecting the revision of the tariff ; and he pointed out the vast increase in the productive energies of the country , unaccompanied as they were by any addition Jo the wages of the producers . He could appeal , he said , to the thousands of framework knitters in that town and country , whether or not they had received fiigher wages in consequEnce of producing nearly eight times more hosiery than they did in 1780 . Their wa ? es now , enumerating 46 , 000 haad 3 in the thiee counties of Xofdngnam , Derby , and
Leicester , did not average more than 7 s . per week ^ Cheers , and " that ' s true . " }—while their wages in the former period wonld pnrchase more than double the quantity of provision and clothing that their present wages would do . ! Cheers . ) Aye , and this , -while our productive powers have reached the extreme point —bo that the naked , unaided energies of § 00 , 060 , 0011 mea COnld not prolnea more than -we ttctb producing by our machinery , steam , and chemical appliances in industry . WTiere had the thirty-nine times additional proaace been swallowed up , he agaiu asked ? Not on the winkers in s ^ jciety , but on the idlers , the merchants , baDk . ers , broktrs , manufacturers .

( Great laughter . ) These were the partic 3 who had fattened on the gorgeous wealth thty had produce . ! by th = ir blistered hands and hardy anus The speaker then entered into a number ol remarks rtS r -eciicg tbe efftct of cheapness of articles , the state of laoour , and the rtssolts of free trade principles generally . The commercial sys ; em that had b = en pursued , and for an extension of which the motion breathed a desire , had been most fatal and ruinous to England . Food , to vhe amount of £ 4 , 518 , was exported from Ireland in 1822 , while the poor Irish were farming in thousands ; hundreds dropping down in thi streets , and the nakedness of thousands displayed the poor pauper
peasant starving amid plenty . ( Cries of "Shame . ") Were tke largest exporting countries the happiest , then would Ireland be an earthly eljsium .

The industrious classes produced £ 819 , 000 , 000 per annum , ia agriculture , manufactures , and minsrals . Sh gross a » ount of £ 552 , 000 , 600 was taken from the people without thiir will or consent , either person ally , or by delegation . The most preper name to give it was robbery . Those men who wished to b * y labour cheap , and sell it dear , did not wi * h to benefit them oae farthing out of the 819 millions . Their only object -was to grasp a few fractions of tbe hundreds of millions now wrested from the people , by laws , in mating which they ( the people ) hid nei&er share nor Voice . As * Tt » Chartists had no pnblic place of resort where they could expound their principles , and defend tteir cause , they had determined to come hither and eonrert the Town Halt into a Ckartist chapel , their respected mayor into a Chartist chairman , and that into » -Cbarfci * t meeting . They would neither allow them
place to meet in , nor come to hear , but still continued to malign and misrepresent them . ( Cheering . ) Now Mr . B . « idth # meetii 3 jshcHiJdhearthein ; theywould prove their

omnipotence out , if they W 6 re powerless in , Parliament iCheering renewed . ) Here Mr . Bairstew entered into a long , argumentative , and eloquent exposition of the six points of the People ' s Charter , during the whole of which time he was listened to with the profoundest attention , only interrupted by the mo » t lona and enthusiastic cheering . He concluded by disproving the misrepresentations of the press , and by stating that he advocated the principles which were formerly the basis of the British Constitution—the palladium of England ' s liberty—the indefeasible and eternal birthright of every man . ( Cheers . ) He sat down , giving his heartiest support to tbe amendment , and pledging his attachment and adherence to the death . ( Loud and long-continued cheering followed on Mr . Bairstow ' s resuming his seat ) Tbe Mayor rose , evidently embarrassed , stating that he did not se 9 how he could proceed , and would request Mr . Bairstow to withdraw tbe amendment After some desultory matters bad passed on ,
Mr . JoHxso . f , the mover of the original motion , rose to reply to Mr . Bairstow ' s speech . He acknowledged its truth , courted the support of tbe Chartists , but attempted to distort a many ot his tMr . Bairstow ' s ) Bt&tementA , till the meeting laughed outright at bis folly &nd discomfiture , and he sat down amid the greatest confusion . Mr . Bairsiow then replied in & masterly speech , and carried the mass of the meeting entirely along with him . The \ f atob still seemed unwilling to put the
amendment Several persons rose to neutralise tbe effects of Mr . Bairstow ' B speech , but were successively compelled to sit down in despair . All the parties Borrounding Mr . Bairstow were endeavouring to dissuade him from opposition , and to withdraw the amendment , and the Mayor likewise declared that he could not put it Mr . Bairstow then stepped forward , and said , I will not and cannot withdraw the amendment , and with all due respect and deference , I beg to move " that ths Mayor vacate the chair , and that Mr . Turner be called thereto . "
This being seconded , was carried unanimously , when the Mayor , and a party of friends bolted , with the motion and amendment in their hands , amid the loudest laughter and catering . After order "was restored , Mr . TCB . NEB . put the amendment , and Mr . Johkson withdrew the original motion , when the amendment was carried by upwards of 1 , 200 blistered hands , there being only three solitary hands held up in opposition . This rtssult "was followed by cheering . A vote of thanks and three cheers were then given to Mr . Bairstow , when that gentleman replied , congratulating them on their noble victory , and unanimous support of their own cause .
Three cheers were given for the Charter , three were also propesed for F . O'Connor , Frost , Williams , and Jones , and the people dispersed highly proud of the triumphant issue of tbe meeting , without one single disturbance , and in the greatest order . Chartism is now lord of the ascendant here ; loag may it shine and illuminate every inhabitant of this citadel of Whiggery .

Alamhnq Fibe at Chatham . —On Friday aornifo , a fire broke out in High-street , Chatham , which ended ia the entire destruction of the bouse occupied by Mr . Giles , an extensive fruit merchant . Not a vestige of the occupier ' s property or furniture was saved ; and what adds to the misfortune is , that Mr . Giles had hitherto been the support of an aged mother , aud a large family , who must now be dependent on others , as Mr . Giles was uninsured , and has conseqvently lost all that he possessed . The house beJon / fed to Dr . Tapley , of Gravesend , aed ia insured in the Sun fire office . It appears that the fire must have originated in the shop , but from what cause is not known . Mr . Giles and fais family ¦ were m bed when the fire was first discovered , and the alarm raised , and they had barely sufficient time to make their escape from the back part of the house . The neighbouring residents have been considerable losers by the damage done to their fm'nitura and stock in trade , in the hasty removal M them from the scene of conflagration . The fire watf not extinguished until eight o ' clock on Saturday ) morning . I
